member of Knit 'n Bake over at Ravelry. I happened upon a post about scones and it made me flash back to Thanksgiving 2 years ago. My family got together at a cabin(used loosely) up in MD. Well my Aunt made these Delicious scones that everyone gobbled up. and I forgot to get the recipe from her... So anyways while reading the above mentioned forum I started getting hungry. I put it off till this morning where I whipped up some scones. I smooshed a few recipes (found at allrecipes) together and made my own scone recipe up. So I decided to share it with you! In fact I'm eating one right now. (they're great as a snack too!)Cranberry Nut Scones

Looks yummy, but I hate cranberries. Can you substitute something else? I need to get in the kitchen and make some bread. I made pizzas a few weeks ago with your recipe. I loved them, but Richard was like, they don't taste like Domino's. Well, duh! LOL!
yummy!
I am trying to resist trying that recipe!
